| Abstract | Salvia miltiorrhiza is one of the most popular traditional Chinese medicinal plants because of its excellent performance in treating coronary heart disease. Tanshinones, a group of active compounds in S. miltiorrhiza, are derived from two biosynthetic pathways: the mevalonate (MVA) pathway in the cytosol and the 2-C-methyl-D-erythritol-4-phosphate (MEP) pathway in the plastids. Water stress is well known to stimulate the accumulation of secondary metabolites in plants. Reactive oxygen species (ROS) serve as important secondary messengers in water stress-induced signal transduction pathways. In this study, the effects of polyethylene glycol (PEG) and abscisic acid (ABA) on tanshinone production in S. miltiorrhiza hairy roots were investigated and the roles of ROS in PEG- and ABA-induced tanshinone production were further elucidated. The results showed that contents and yields of four tanshinones in S. miltiorrhiza hairy roots were significantly enhanced by 2 % PEG and 200 μM ABA. Simultaneously, the mRNA levels and activities of two key enzymes (3-hydroxy-3-methylglutaryl coenzyme A reductase and 1-deoxy-D-xylulose 5-phosphate synthase) involved in tanshinone biosynthesis were upregulated. Both PEG and ABA were able to trigger the burst of H2O2 and O2 −. The PEG- and ABA-induced increases of tanshinone production, gene expression, and enzyme activity were all dramatically suppressed by two ROS scavengers, catalase and superoxide dismutase. In addition, ROS treatments resulted in a significant increase in tanshinone production. These results demonstrated that the MVA and MEP pathways were activated by PEG and ABA to stimulate tanshinone biosynthesis, and the increase of tanshinone production was probably via ROS signaling. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.
